God's word is truly precious. More precious than gold and sweeter than honey. God's words are the word of life (cf. John 6:68-69). They enrich the soul. God's word warns us of dangerous thoughts, words, and actions. It directs us in paths of true joy and blessing. God's word points us to Jesus, the source of eternal life. God's word lifts our spirits to focus on more noble things. And it helps us deal with the very real muck and mire of daily life.
